El Salvador Against Honduras Conflict
San Salvador - The Honduras conflict needs a
speedy solution but without keeping Coupists
in power until elections, emphasized
Salvadorian Foreign Minister Hugo Martinez.
A rapid solution without keeping the de
facto President Roberto Micheletti in the
government until elections (scheduled for
next November), noted the diplomatic cited
Tuesday by the local newspaper La Prensa
Grafica.
If Micheletti would remain we would be
sending the worst message to the inter
American community, stressed Martinez. It
would be assumed that Coups d'etat could be
carried out, install a government, organize
elections and to do as if nothing happened,
for that reason it is important to advance
to a quick solution, of course before
November, he emphasized.
By the Minister's opinion the Central
American Integration System (SICA) is the
first entity that must try to find a
solution to this Coup since it is a natural
entity for Honduras.
He also recalled the SICA pro tempore
presidency is now occupied by Costa Rica
President Oscar Arias for what he has to act
as mediator.
Talks in Costa Rica will be resumed this
weekend with the participation of
commissions appointed by Honduras
Constitutional President Manuel Zelaya and
Coupist Micheletti.
From the Nicaraguan capital Zelaya ordered
the de facto government in his country to
fulfill the resolutions imposed by the UN
organization and the Organization of
American States (OAS) in relation with
reestablishment of constitutional order and
the leader overthrown by force.
If those demands are not fulfilled talks
over solution of the situation in Honduras
still with Costa Rica President Oscar Arias
mediation are considered a failure, warned
Zelaya. |
